DescriptionThis work contains two panels. The first and larger of the two panels depicts multiple figures both male and female. There are four distinct figures near the bottom of the work, a male figure appears to be embracing a small child figure in the center. Along the left support a female figures is breast feeding an infant. Above these four figures more figures are depicted, some seem to be floating. The artist uses very loose brush strokes and cool tones. On the second panel the image is dominated by what appears to be a male figure wrapped in barbed wire. This image is very dark and full of blue cool tones. On View
